Removing pine pitch

After a few days surrounded by Douglas fir trees, we noticed a few drops of pitch on the truck and trailer. After 10 days, it turned into a real mess.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to safely remove it from painted surfaces and especially from the awning on the TT? It's a real mess.
  • Wait till you get a good freeze this winter and with expired credit card you can just peel it right off, at least that's what I used to do to get it off.
  • Try hand sanitizer, it has alcohol in it that dissolves sap and doesn't evaporate as fast as plain alcohol.
